What I've Been Watching Recently #1

It's no secret that I watch a lot of TV and films - my nights are normally dedicated to relaxing in front of my TV with Pascal sleeping beside me! I thought I'd share what I've been loving recently:

Wet Hot American Summer

When this was advertised on Netflix I wasn't that interested in it - but when I realised just how star studded the cast was (Amy Poehler, Paul Rudd & Bradley Cooper!) I decided to give it a shot. I hadn't seen the film so I wasn't sure what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised. It is without a doubt, one of the weirdest, funniest things I've ever watched. The style and humour kind of reminded me of a mix between Community and Parks and Recreation which can only be a good thing. Michael Showalter completely stole the show as Coop and Ronald Reagan. I also loved Chris Pine as Eric! I really hope they make a second season but 8 episodes was just not enough - definitely one of my favourite shows now!

If you love this you'll love: Parks and Recreation, Community

Jurassic Park

After reading the novel, I thought it was finally time I watched the film. Although I loved it, I didn't enjoy it as much as the book. There was quite a few characters left out, and not all the deaths were the same. The ending was also different - instead of destroying the park and killing the dinosaurs they just left it all behind! However, I did like that Lex was the one that was smart with computers and managed to get the power back on. In the book she was had no clue what to do about anything!

If you love this you'll love: (I have no clue for this one, but probably Star Wars or something? Idk)

Suits
I started watching Suits back in January and I was very quickly hooked on it. I'd completely forgotten that season 5 started in June so I was happy to see that it's already on in the UK! I love following the lives of Harvey and Mike and I've always enjoyed a good law tv show. 

If you love this you'll love: How To Get Away With Murder, The Good Wife

The Great British Bake Off
This is without a doubt my favourite reality TV show - I have a slight obsession with Mary Berry and I love Paul Hollywood's dry comments! Who knew a show about baking would be so good?! Honestly, there's nothing more tense than watching someone make an ice-cream cake, only to discover the ice-cream is too big (I'm looking at you Alvin!)

Ways To Wear: The Wool Coat

Today I'm showing you how I would style this grey wool coat from Primark. I have a similar coat to this in a camel shade (also from Primark) but I'm seriously considering picking up the grey one after doing this post!

LOOK ONE

This look definitely has a more relaxed feel to it. I'd pair the coat with a cute t-shirt, like this lovely french bulldog one, and some light blue denim jeans. I'd accessorise it with some nice round sunglasses, a fluffy bag and a pair of Vans!

 LOOK TWO

This look is the perfect Winter office outfit for me! I love the chunky knit jumper and the boucle skirt combination - how cute is the lace detail? No mini skirt look is complete without a pair of patent loafers these days and a nice big shopper bag!

Which look do you prefer?

An ASOS Wishlist

Paisley Blouse / Jacquard Top / Striped Tee / Vans Jumper / Chunky Cardigan / Blogging Tee / Style Icon Tee / Faux Fur Gilet / Mini Skirt / A-line Skirt / Dungarees / Backpack / Cut Out Boots / Chelsea Boots / Milk Bag / iPhone Case

I'll admit it - I've only ever purchased two or three things from ASOS in my life. Pretty awful, right? I think the sheer volume of clothes was always overwhelming to me, and I could never be bothered to go through every category to find something to buy. But curiosity got the better of me and I was jealous of everyone else's great finds - it also doesn't help that I follow at least 10 ASOS stylists on Instagram. I went through ASOS, built up a huge wishlist and now I'm patiently waiting for my student loan to come in so I can treat myself.

My favourite items are the black a-line suede skirt and the textured chelsea boots - I think they'd look lovely paired together for A/W! I also love the paisley blouse, which is something I've wanted for ages, and the 'blogging > jogging' t-shirt.

Will you be picking up any of these items? What do you think of my wishlist?

My Blogging Essentials

I'm sure these posts have been done to the death but I thought I'd share my blogging essentials today! They include:

• Blogging notebook
• Cute stationary 
• iPhone
• A white background
• MacBook

So it turns out I don't actually need a lot to blog! I don't have a professional camera for pictures so I just make do with my iPhone or iPad and I think they come out pretty good. My blogging notebook contains all my ideas for posts and what's to be written for each month and I keep a spreadsheet on my MacBook to help with scheduling.
